Buying Indonesian coffee in the UK
Indonesian coffee — especially wet-hulled Sumatran lots — is earthy, herbal and full-bodied with very low acidity, often carrying cedar and tobacco notes. It’s the origin to reach for if you want a dark, savoury, comforting cup. It suits darker roasts, espresso and cafetière, and is a poor match for anyone chasing bright, fruity flavours.
Frequently asked questions
- Why does Indonesian coffee taste earthy?
- The traditional wet-hulled (giling basah) processing used across Sumatra dries beans differently from washed coffee, producing the distinctive earthy, herbal, full-bodied profile with low acidity that defines the region.
